318 2bbl manifold swap with OE cam - worth it?
I wanna tell you I built a hot little 318 with a stock original motor,in my 70 Dart.It had about 70,000 miles on it.
All I did was add a Edelbrock performer with a Edelbrock 600,wich in my opinion is the perfect intake carb set-up for the 318. Also with a Edelbrock carb,all factory linkages/fuel lines bolt right up.
Electronic ignition.
Dual exhaust,Flowmaster 40's, H-pipe.
The kicker was the Hi-Po 340 manifolds !!
Never got a 1/4 mile time, but I tell you this car was no joke with this set-up.
I could roast the tires with this car. Was really fun to drive.
So yes you can wake up a stock 318 with the right bolt ons.
